A BROKENBARRIER. HV it. VAI.UUU IIOr.OIIAN. "You are merciless, darling," says Sirs. Eliot softly, stroking the golden hair so near her. "If you were only less proud, less repellant If you would only not return eyery letter ho sends, I nm sure Frederick would soon become reconciled." The girl standing In tho window turns with a gesture of passionate scorti, drawing her figure to Its full height. "If you cannot talk without Insulting me, Aunt Muriel," she says, iu a low, keen voice, "please remain silent. Am I such an ogress that Fred Jloiitr.illle must stoop to bccohie reconciled to a marriage with me? Thero aro men who would not have found it a dlfllcult task no doubt, had I not been fettered as well as 'my lurd.' And then"-wlth a contemptuous flash of the dar-blito eyes, and a scornful ring of the sweet volce-to turn on mo nt such a time: when ho discovered the truth, and accuse tne of deceiving hlm-of plotting the mar- ilage! I wjirficverforglvo him never the coward! 'And for the marriage, which spoils all my life, too, I am as sorry as he cverican be I" With a sob of passionate rebellion, which she yalldy tries to smother, Kathleen Mon- trallle fK'! on her knees beside (he window and buries her faco In her hands, giving vent to a storm of broken, stifling sobs. "Oh, dearest, dearest!" whispers Aunt Mtirl.il, caressing the lovely golden head tho dearest treasure earth holds to her motherly heait( "you must not take it to heart so dreadfully. Dear! dear! of what could your father h.-tvd been thinking when he commanded that marriage at his death bed! Hut it is so long ago nearly threo years. Fred will probably havo got over the hurt of It by this time. After all" thoughtfully, as the sobs threaten to cease "one cannot blamo him so much that ho should take It hard, Kathleen. lie was reared to think of you as his sister. Ae brother and sister you studied and quar reled an J played together until ho went to Europe to study art. Then", when he had been gone live years, your father, as wo suppose, Immediately sert for hlin when tho doctors said that ho inustiliel Poor James!" whilo tho good woman's eyes grow dim, and Kathleen's sobs had ceased entirely "how earnestly he craved that marriago between you and your cousin 1 Wn wondered then that on his deatlf'bed he could care so much; then, while you sobbed and Fred stood straight up like a statue, It was performed. Ther, after the i funeral, that letter addressed to Fred was read, In which IIeavons,don'tl" erle's Kathleen, spiing- mi Ing to her feet, all her wealth of golden hair streaming around her. "That letter revealed the truth that I was a waif a nobody, and, but for the mercy of the man who had been entrapped Into marrying mo while he loved another, I was penniless. Then he turned sharply on mc,and accused me of knowing it :'! the lime of planning and plotting Hut hah! let us not talk of It, Aunt Muriel! You, at least, have been good and kind, as If I had Indeed been what I was reared to consider myself, am glad to know that I have never touched a cent of his money that my own literary endeavors spare nm that!'' "lounre jiot looking well, ilcar," says Mrs. Eliot, a little later, as she comes Into the room suddenly In the twilight shadows, to find Kathleen leaning against tho win dow, and looking out with woary, yearning eyes. "The rest will do you good you write too much. I have Just completed Ar rangements to start for Long Uratlch next Monday." A few moments' silence, then the slim, white figure turns slowly, showing a faco of sweet, spiritual beauty. 'And I ha'-j just received a letter from my hus lir. Montralllo," sho says slowly, "notifying moot his return to America, and that ho would bo with us on tho eigh teenth. By the seventeenth sure, Aunt Muriel, we must start for Long Branch!" "Kathleen I" In dismay ( hut the only answer sho receives Is a reckless little laugh, and: "The seventeenth, sure! And let Mr. Montralllo's visit bo mado to vacancy! Wo havo existed without his lordship so far;we can do so still!" "I do not feel quite good enough to go to church this morning, Aunt Muriel," says Kathleen, with a little smile which brings out all the soft, exquisite dimples of her lovely face. "I must he growing reck less, fashionable and worldly-wise fast, be cause It Is the first Sabbath In my Ufo that I missed church." Sho Is making tho loveliest picture In the world as sho stands before her dicssing glass, adjusting her white Gainsborough hat above the lovely, dainty face, and so thinks a gentleman passing through the corridor, and glancing In through the open door. When past ho pauses a moment as If to turn back, tl.cn: "Pshaw!'' ho says, with alight laugh, pursuing ills way. "I could not bo Kath leen. I wonder where the child can bo! I was a brute to her I deserve nothing bet ter, but I am sorry that she hates nie so much that sho runs always at news of my approach 1 We always were friends before this unfortunate affair, and wo might he so still, and make the best of a bad bargain!'' In the meantime Kathleen turns from tho luxurious room, and runs lightly down the stairway followed by hundreds of envi ous and admiring eyes, for sho Is the hello the one woman In Lone: Branch fur whom Colonel Charteris has ears or eyes, and the verdict of the wealthy) elegant Colonel Charteris Is tho verdict of every ono else. I must escape them to-day," thinks Kathleen, darting out through a side door. "To-day I cannot even talk I am too wretched! Just to think of his coming here. When I was beginning almost to fancy I might ho happy without him, after all! Ah!" For her hurried walk, In which an artis tic umbrella had shaded her eyes, brings her in the Immediate path of some one coming from an opposite direction. Looking up suddenly with lovely eyes, just now dazzled by the sun's rays, she sur veys the tall bronzed man with tho hand some faco and cultured look, who is stand in her pathway; then she draws hack with a low cry of dismay. Sho doc3 not sco tho glad light which leaps Into his dark-brown eyc3. Siio does not notleo that, Involuntarily ho stretches out his hands. Sho only knows that, after three weary years, she has met I1I111 at last tho man who scorned anil shunned her because ho was betrayed Into marriago with her while his heart was glyen to another. That knowledge lends her prldo and courage to hide the yearning of her own heart desolate all these years. "Ah!" she says coldly, laying a tiny, passive hand, which chills him to tho heart, "it is yoU) Mr. Montralllc. It Is so long slnco you have been amongst U3 that I hardly recognized you. Ono so easily for gets faces when they see so many." So, while her heart cries out lit hot re bellion, which mado this man so much to her, yet nothing at all In reality; and whilo ho thinks that sho Is tho lovolicst woman he has eyer seen, and somehow tingles with delight at the thought, they return slowly to the hotel, formal and polite as strangers. On the balcony, Colonel Charteris ad vances toward her, his handsome, blonde face full of passionate admiration, which causes Fred Muntraille to clinch hands In sudden rage. "My dear Jfrs. Montralllel" exclaims the Colonel, scarcely noticing tho man. "You promised -to let tne give you a row this morning. The water Is beautiful. I shall bo In despair If you retract your promise." "I would not be guilty of such n thing," she laughs softly; "In a few moments, if you will wait." And while Frederick stah'ds beside Aunt Muriel, she excuses herself with a little formal apology, to row with her most ar ent admirer; "You will lose her yet," says Mrs. Eliot, warmly. "Colonel Charteris Is a danger ously handsome and fascinating man, Fred, and this Is a Compliment to your stupidity ono who has culture mid sense enough to appreciate Kathleen. H'hat fools jou young people aro as If life wero made to quarrel away. But you will lose her yet; even now she could obtain a dlveiro on the plea of desertion, and If she: does, It will servo you right 1" Tho summer days glide hy, and, milcss;in tho society of others, Fred is a stranger to his wife. In balls, parties, excursions, and pleas ures of all kinds, Colonel Charteris Is her devoted cavalier. Fred grows moody nmt irritable. After all she is his wife she has no power to altar that now and she should be a tri tic more considerate When he sees her gliding down the long, ( brilliant ball-room to tlie strains of a sweet $1.28 when nol paid in Advance. Single Copies 5 Cents. sad waltz, pressed close In the arms of Col onel Charteris, tho sight is so feat fully maddening that It tortures him all night, and In the morning brings him stern and vexed to tho very door of her rooms at an unceremoniously early hour. In answer to her mad's "not at homo" hestalks past that personage, arid confronts his wife, who Is sitting, pale, languid and unspeakably beautiful, hi an casy-chalr of pale blue satin. "To what am I Indebtod for tho honor of this visit, Mr. Montralllc?" sho asks, rising slowly, hut trembling like a reed. "Ale you mad or Intoxicated?" "This." ho answers sternly. "I have the rlgnt to como here, as none other on earth has." "Indeed I A right you willingly forfeited It Is rather late In tho day to recall its claim." "Not (00 late," he says, unit bending suddenly down In the Irresistible temptation of her sweet beauty, ho kisses tho golden hair; then Kathleen finds herself drawn within her husband's arms, while his Hps touch bcr once-twice thrice, and "My own love my wife!" I10 whispers, holding her so against his heart. "For give me, Kathleen, and let me atone!'' She makes no nnswer In words only raises her hands to stroke his bronzed face; but tho deep blue eyes mirror her perfect Happiness and content at last. YE OLDEN TIMES. Who among our extravagant young .adles In theso boastful times oyer gave tier lover, at-Cleopatra did, a pearl dissolved In vine gar (or undissolved) worth four hundred thousand dollars? Thou thero wns Paulina, one of the ton In Home, who used to wear jewels, when she returned her visits', worth three, hun dred thousand dollars. Cicero, who was a coi'nparatlvely poor man in those times, gave fifteen hundred thousand dollars for his establishment on the Palatine, while Mossala gave two mil million dollars for the house of Anthony, bencca, who was a plain philosopher. was worth one hundred and twenty million dollars. Cicsar and Mark Antony both owncdi wonderfully large fortunes. Why, they talk about a man's falling in New Yoik for a million as if It was a big thing. Cicsar, before ho entered any office- when ho was a young gentleman In private life owed fourteen million dollars, and he purchased the ftlendshlpot Qmosorfor twd mllliou live hundred thousand dollars. Mark Anton owed fifteen hundred thou sand dollars on the Ides of March, and raid It before the Kalends of March. This was nothing he squandered scvcil hundred and twenty million dollars of the imblic money. And these fellows lived well. Esopus who was a play actor, paid four hundred thousand dollars for a dish. Calligula paid four hundred thousand dollars for a supper. Their wines were often kept for two dges, and some of them were sold fot twepty dol lars an ounce. Dishes were made of gold and silver and set with precious stones. The. beds of Heliogabulus were of solid silver, his table and plates wero of pure gold, and his mattresses, covered with car pets of clotii of gold, were stuffed w 1th dow n from under tile wing of the partridge. It took eighty thousand dollars a year to keep up the dignity of a Homan Senator, altd soule of them spent five million dollars a year. And we talk about tho extravagance of modern times!
